Silk fibroin has good biocompatibility

biodegradability and low inflammatory response

in vivo

and has broad application prospects in the field of biomedicine. However

the mechanical properties and biological activities of regenerated silk fibroin materials need to be further improved to meet the needs of different tissue engineering. Cellulose possesses a wide range of sources

low cost

and good mechanical properties. The reinforced composite materials prepared from cellulose and its derivatives have attracted widespread attention. Using cellulose and silk fibroin as raw materials to prepare high-performance composites with different solvent systems has become an interesting work in the field of natural polymers in recent years. In this paper

the structure

properties and related applications of silk fibroin and cellulose are introduced. The solvent systems of cellulose and silk fibroin are classified. Recent progress of various cellulose/silk fibroin composite forms (films

gels

fibers

etc

.) are reviewed.
